Second (we think) individual bird seen now (another bird than the one we saw a few days ago) hunting in the drizzle late this afternoon at this time. Must be very hungry.

First time we've seen one of the local birds in months. They've had a rough time of it lately, with all this rain, so this afternoon's sighting was something of a relief, to be honest.

Out early tonight. Well before the light was lost. Hunting like a proper barn owl tonight (as opposed to last night).

Hunting like a tawny owl. Sitting on a tree over a road, near its roost, just listening... very intently. It must be low on energy and very hungry right now.

Out early tonight. And forced to begin hunting at the top of the hill rather than nearer its main roost at the bottom of the hill in the swampy fields. It's had a couple of rough nights so no real surprise to see it out in the light today.
